Corey Lemonier makes a play for his new National Football League team

Running back Jay Ajayi scored on an 11-yard touchdown run to deliver the Dolphins (1-2) their first victory of the season.

“He has really been, probably, one of our most consistent guys that we have”, Gase said. He was the Browns’ best playmaker on the day. You can’t divorce the 2016 Browns from their widely understood expectations.

Filling in for starter Patrick Murray, Parkey missed three field goals on the day, including a 46 yarder with 20 seconds left in regulation that would have sent the Browns home unlikely winners. And it should, given the Browns’ only offensive TD came on a Pryor run from the backfield. Terrelle Pryor had a huge day for the Browns, contributing in every facet of the offense and almost spurring the team to victory. Cleveland linebacker Corey Lemonier got past right tackle Ja’Wuan James and sacked quarterback Ryan Tannehill.

It took overtime, but the Dolphins emerged victorious. “If I have to go in a couple plays, I’ll be ready'”. It’s all I want to do, to win, compete, battle my butt off, make these teams look bad. Miami has plenty season left, but Vance Joseph might want to start getting early looks his kind of players in next year’s National Football League draft. The 28-year-old is supposedly leading the Dolphins in what I would call a “culmination” type of year.

“He’s 6-6, 240 (pounds) and runs a 4.4”, said Miami cornerback Byron Maxwell. The Browns re-signed him on December 2, 2015 and he saw action in two games at wide receiver, catching his first and only pass of the season in the season finale against the Steelers for 42 yards.

Gase, the NFL’s youngest head coach at 38 and someone developing a reputation for candor, has been threatening changes for the last week or so for players who don’t perform, and he made one such change against Cleveland.

It all went for naught as Cody Parkey completely collapsed in Hard Rock Stadium. Coleman is an especially good example for this conversation because he wasn’t even available for the game.

NOTES: Browns CB Joe Haden was limited in practice.

“Come Sunday, the game is easy”. “I love the game, man”.

“I thought our defense was playing hot”, Jackson said.

“He didn’t lose the game”, said Jackson. “I can’t say enough about the job Terrelle Pryor did”, receiver Andrew Hawkins said. “I felt like I was able to get a little redemption today”. They have good football players. “This is on me, and I take full responsibility for it all”. It took Cody Parkey missing a field goal towards the end of regulation and Cameron Wake making a big play in overtime to force a fumble.

“I talked to him earlier in the week just about his time in San Francisco”, Jackson said, “and I think the guy is talented, and I told him, ‘You’ve got to make some plays”. “We’re three games in now and we’re too far in to be having the kinds of mistakes that we’re having”. I think the whole standard for us is a lot higher. There might be a lot of relief in eight wins for a Browns fan these days. “They seemed to be pulling left on me”.
